@wurzelmann @alice It's great until you have to answer those questions at a bank branch. Ask me how I know.

It should be noted that there will be something similar to the Year 2000 Problem somewhere in 2038: the common way to represent time, seconds since 1970-01-01 00:00, as a 32 bit number, will wrap around and make computers think they're in the past.
Hopefully(?) we learned from Y2K and are preparing for that event already.
@diegomartinez @Gorfram @alice Yeah I know ;). I hope to be pensioned by then but the government is trying to prevent that ;).

@float13 @theorangetheme @alice Thanks for sharing this! Had to try of course, interesting (to me) result: this works for English entries, German ones end up circling around languages and linguistics. What that has to do with anything is , however, a philosophical question?

@old_angry_queer @veronica @alex @alice Funnily, that version of “Pure Data” was my first thought.

-
@wurzelmann @alice I do that too, but sometimes an account recovery flow requires you to answer the question over the phone. That gets awkward.
@jef @wurzelmann @alice Many password managers support generating random words. I use that for anything which might need to be read out.

And that was a re-release of the single "Fake Code Repository" by Tall Simon from the "Subtly Broken" album., on Elusive Sasquatch records.

@wurzelmann @alice noone should answer any of these questions honestly!
@F3715H @wurzelmann @alice Except in the situations where you are required to answer truthfully, like when dealing with banks and infostealers^W credit bureaus, which may come up unexpectedly. I nearly lost a ~$20k stock bonus because my employer at the time used information from a website I had assumed didn’t need to have real information about me.

@bob_zim @wurzelmann @alice well, they should've disclosed that detail!

your WHAT? -
@alice Great advice! I also love using my password manager to save "answers" to security questions.
"Maiden name of mother"?
Easy: "fdsdkljf89rtu23he4orhweörfwer0weh334h234234"
"First dog's name"?
Ah, little "dfshfsdfui6z43207r2phreuihdesfs7d89fsdfsd9fsfdf" was so cute!
@wurzelmann @alice
"We called him Diffy." -

The Orion browser supports Firefox plugins on iOS IIRC.

@diegomartinez @Gorfram @alice Oh, the planet will still be there, possibly without mankind… (hypergalactic bywayconstruction excluded from scenario’s).

I would not use those. If you are talking to a human, those are too easy to social engineer "Well, to be honest, I just touched my yubikey and left that answer in, so I don't remember it."
I put wrong answers in, but ones that you can actually speak. "Yes, my sister's middle name is "Fang II: This Time It's Personal" and "Sure, my first dog was named The airplane on 77 Water St, Manhattan"

@elithebearded @alice I've literally never had to use those in a spoken way...
